The area could see additional snow accumulations of 8 to 16 inches in the most persistent lake snows. Winds may gust as high as 35 mph, causing areas of blowing and drifting snow.
Travel during this morning and tonight’s commutes could be very difficult with poor visibility and snow cover on the road.
